We're so polite
It makes me want to shout
We waive the everything we want
An' take the nothing we already have
An' I'm waiting on hold
For something to blow...
All is in reach & as clear as day
Yet the smallest move
Remains a mile away
So we while away
Going nowhere bit by bit
An' it just seems
We can't get round to gettin' round to it
Sometimes it makes me ache...
Someone once wrote
All the world's a stage
But the truth comes written somewhat different on my
Page
I know this script's fixed from the start
Cos ordinary men & women only get
Supporting parts
An' I'm waiting on hold
For something to explode
We spend our lives
Waitin' for
Someone other than ourselves
To make a move
We always do
We do
We always blow it
I know
You know
I know you know it but...
I keep on coming back because
The power is yours
Let's get this situation sorted out! We're so polite It makes me want to shout We waive the everything we want An' take the nothing we already have An' I'm waiting on hold For something to blow... All is in reach & as clear as day Yet the smallest move Remains a mile away So we while away Going nowhere bit by bit An' it just seems We can't get round to gettin' round to it Sometimes it makes me ache... Someone once wrote All the world's a stage But the truth comes written somewhat different on my Page I know this script's fixed from the start Cos ordinary men & women only get Supporting parts An' I'm waiting on hold For something to explode We spend our lives Waitin' for Someone other than ourselves To make a move We always do We do We always blow it I know You know I know you know it but... I keep on coming back because The power is yours Explain Request ×
